You think the Pulitzer is political? My gosh.

Seriously, I would like to pretend I knew all along but I didn't. A sin of omission rather than commission. Most of my life, when I heard "Pulitzer Prize", I assumed the author was an honest, deserving writer. Never looked into it at all. Now that I have, I rank the prize right below the Order of Lenin or whatever awards Goebbels gave out for writing.

Meg33---a error which will be handy to point out in the future.

I know this: the family of Gareth Jones and the Ukrainians are not going away. This will be an issue forever until the New York Times does the right thing.

Arthur Sulzberger is such an idiot. He could have ended this by quietly returning the Pulitzer. But he wanted to make an issue of it for some rather sick reasons (my paper apologizes for not doing enough during the Holocaust, my paper will not admit there was a Holodomor first).

We will see who wins. My bet is on the families of victims of Duranty and the New York Times.

I don't go around suspecting motives,legitamacy,etc.I must be shown and sometimes it's demoralizing.I've found it also energizing to learn some of the sacred cows aren't so sacred.The truth shall set us free!

The information here is shocking. If the New York Times and the Pulitzer Prize continue to stonewall this, it will affirm their deep ties to the Bolshevik movement.

The exploiters of the Soviet Union were the privileged caste of highly ranked Communist officials. They were the ruling class. This, no doubt, is why the elite of the New York Times and the Pulitzer managers developed their affinity with communist oppressors and not the common folk.
